WEST COAST MOCK MEET 2009
|
Back from London.
We went to see the Tate Modern, Natural History Museum and Science Museum. Tate modern was kind of suck. Perhaps I'm just a philistine but I cannot understand the vast majority of modern art. My main criticism is that I find a lot of modern art-particularly performance art-indistinguishable from parody versions of itself. You could show me a video of Paul Macartny punching himself in the face with a boxing glove and I wouldn't be able to tell you if it was legitimate "art" or a joke (fyi, this was a legitimate performance art piece in the gallery). Meh, not my cup of tea at all. The Natural History museum is great for looking at dinosaur bones and stuffed animals and they've got a big Darwin exhibition at the moment as it's like Darwin month or something in the UK. All in all it's a cool place to go, and worth checking out if you get a chance. The Science Museum is really cool too. It's huge and they've got a lot of good stuff. The V2 rocket they have was the stand-out thing for me because it was so much bigger than I thought it would be. They had all the gyroscopic targeting mechanisms out on show as well which was interesting. There was also a V1 and a few war planes which were good to look at but not as cool as the V2. They also had a whole floor on the history of computing and mathematics with several versions of Babbage's Difference Engine kicking about. Nerdy stuff indeed. The journey home was kind of a hassle because my MP3 player's battery died on me and I had to listen to a screaming toddler directly behind me on the coach and an incredibly stupid sounding woman on the phone directly next to me, across the isle. I don't know what the fuck her problem was but she kept phoning and being phoned by presumably the same person and then talking to him (I assume it was a him) for about 5 minutes each time using only four fucking sentences (or more accurately, sentence fragments/words). She'd say "HI... YOU ARIGHT?..OKAY...YOU ARIGHT?...OKAY...YOU ARIGHT THOUGH?..I'M ON A BUS. A WHITE BUS". I'm not exaggerating. I heard her say "YOU ARIGHT" at least 20-30+ times in 5-6 phone calls. And "I'M ON A BUS" almost as much. She also did this weird thing where she'd take the phone away from her face mid-sentence and look at the screen for about 5 seconds then put it back to her back and continue talking-"okay... yeah..."-as if she'd been listening to whoever she was speaking to. It wouldn't have been so bad if she wasn't speaking so fucking loudly or if she'd actually spoken in real sentences that I could eavesdrop on. All in all it was a decent day out. |
I'LL REMEMBER THAT THE NEXT TIME I AM IN LONDON.
|
That looks long, should I read it or watch tv?
|
watch tv
|
I'm sick dammit :(
|
I HATE FEBRUARY

Are all the good museums only in London? I wanna see Great Britain and go to the museums, but I don't want to be in London.
|
I've heard there is an awesome war museum in Washington, I'd love to go there one day.
That, and Chicago Natural History museum. |
BTW MM, that lady was running away from her life to meet up with a man who is leaving his wife to be with her.

You would have been fine. We're nowhere near NYC. |

Tadao: Unfortunatly the majority of good museums are in London, but it depends what you want to see. If you're into Tanks or Aviation the best places are scattered across the countryside. The same goes for Roman Briton, medieveil forts etc. But it is definatly worth visting London for atleast a day or two. |
I spent a week in London with my dad between the London bombings. We pretty much spent every day in museums.One day isn't enough to go through British Museum, we were approximately able to see only 1/4 of the stuff there. HMS Belfast was cool.
The most memorable thing I remember from our trip was however the moment of silence that was held for the victims of the terrorist attacks, we were at Westminister Abbey at the moment and it was quite touching. We also witnessed the gathering on Trafalgar Square. |
Rankeri: the Field Museum?

My dad flies into Buffalo all the time, I'm glad it wasn't one of his weeks to visit that factory :/ |
Yeah, that one. I've wanted to visit it ever since I saw The Ghost and the Darkness when I was in elementary school :(
|
lol.
I love the field museum. I used to know someone who curated a big exhibit there. I was offered to come for an after-hours special tour, wink wink, but I turned them down :/ I'm reasonably sure there would have been attempted fucking and that grossed me out. The field museum is really cool, but my preference has always been the Milwaukee Public Museum 45 minutes to the north, where they perfected the art of the diorama. |

Yes. Good memory!
Actually, he was a professor I rather respected and liked. When he made the offer, after several uncomfortable-for-me invitations to his tiny office in the alcove of a converted Victorian house off-campus, something told me at an instinctive level that the offer wasn't entirely above-board and that I should probably turn it down. I didn't understand the total exactitude of why, I guess you could say. To his credit, he wasn't gross. He was a graduate student and obviously highly intelligent. I was mainly weirded out by the whole teacher-propositioning-student thing. Part of me wishes I would have gone to get any potential special glimpse of the exhibit, though, and let the chips fall where they may. |
You could have had hot, passionate sex inside the chest cavity of a fossilized dinosaur!
|
Yes, well, at that time it was about as comfortable as Gordon Jump's guest appearance on Diff'rent Strokes.

Anyhow, the guy just came out with a big-in-the-field book, which should ensure him all of the needy student poon he can handle. |

I believe it was the Joker from Batman who once asked, "why so sad?"

I ate a salad yesterday.
And I actually liked it. What the fuck is happening?!!?! |
OH NO! SALADS DON'T MAKE YOU PEE!
|
But this bottle of wine will!
|
ONLY IF YOU SLURP IT OUT OF THE LINES OF MY METICULOUSLY CHISELED ABS. ;)
|
ABS stands for "Aggravated Butt Syndrome" right?
|
YES. MY AGGRAVATED BUTT SYNDROME HAS BEEN CHISELED. THE LINES ARE SO ALL THE RUN-OFF SLUDGE AND SEEPAGE DON'T PUDDLE. ;)
|
Oh I thought the lines were drainage tubes, fuck.
My bad. |
To alleviate cholera.
|
I love my valetines day presents :)
|
Happy VD I-Mockery!!
|
Has anyone seen the latest friday the 13th movie yet? How much did it suck?
|
I wanted to see it really badly, and I thought maybe I was going as a surprise valentine's gift, but I don't think it's happening.
|
I'd take you.
Even though I'm broke. |
Smooth :rolleyes

Cause she would want to blow you in the theater ;)

That's awesome. I asked this girl to the movies a few weeks ago. Her friend was with her and was all like "Well, if you're taking my friend and paying for her ticket you have to take me too!."
I was like "Sorry baby, I only have two free tickets" |
Did it turn out well?
|
What an audacious hobag!
last i checked the two from my story are moving in together :O :O this is the same guy that PUNCHED SOMEBODY THROUGH A NEWSPAPER CLASSIC |
He sounds like a fun guy to hang around with. The guy who makes people laugh.
10K, you should have given her a cock block badge. |
oh my, I'm bleeding
|
GOOD CALL TADAO
|
I hope you blood clots!
and then travels to your heart and causes you palpitations! |
THANK YOU KAHL I CALL EM AS I SEE EM!

I only went to the movies with one guy outside of a longterm relationship situation.
I was at India Fest. I was headed for the theatre to watch Yeh Dillagi. A desi guy caught up with me and asked if I was going to watch the movie, which I thought was obvious. He followed me into the theatre and took the seat next to mine. Ten minutes later, he turned to me and said, "Do you have a boyfriend?" I said yes. He got up and left. Aaaaaaaaaand scene. |
I DON'T GIVE IT OUT FOR FREE.
|
:lol
|
Today's valentine gift of custom-painted nesting dolls was well-received, but the lacquer never lost its aroma and you can practically get high off the fumes. Guess it's the gift that keeps on giving :(

i believe i made an error in judgement.
taking a trip to morgantown tomorrow afternoon. i am bringing a friend, who needs to be back at a particular time tomorrow night. upon speaking to ashley, i was led to believe that if i were spending the night, i'd be getting some ass. and maaaaaaan i miss those tits. |
My Valentines day was bittersweet. I got to see the person I'd give the world to right before I go to my duty station in Kansas but I also told her we can't be together because it'd be too hard on her when I'm in a combat zone. I wouldn't want her to have to deal with that :\
|
You should probably have waited until you get to your unit and found out what exactly you'll be doing. Not to mention that with the specter of death looming, now might be a good time to seal the deal.
But hey, there's plenty of poon that loves a man in uniform, no need to be tied down. Hooah. |
Trim's always a plus about being a soldier :picklehat
|
My god, Martin Short is hysterical in Arrested Development.
|
With all due respect, I'm amazed that Martin Short is hysterical in anything. And that goes double for that doppelganger Jamie Kennedy.
|
Apparently, it's just arrested development and the three amigos. Also, Innerspace is an alright movie.
|
haven't seen Innerspace since elementary school.
I got an iced coffee at the Tim Horton's drive-thru this morning. This dog was staring at me the entire time. |
Arressted Development is awesome and im sorry I didnt catch it when it was starting on TV
|
IT WAS COVERED IN BUGS!
|
Clifford was actually funny. Arrested Development speaks for itself.
|
I should totally watch Arrested Development
|
I enjoyed Arrested Development.
The Job guy was on Sesame Street the other day, doing magic. |
I saw a fat girl in turquoise jeans today.
My instant thought was 'If I was a guy, I'd cum on those. Then she might not wear them again' |

I laughed really hard when I saw that. I was just like "Hahahahahaha, stupid muppets." |

Ah well. I'd still have done it.

You can still leave snail trails all over them.

I had a traumatic experience.
I was bored with my other projects and decided to do some spring-cleaning. We have a sofa bed that my grandmother gave me a few years ago. We'd only ever used it as a couch, and I don't know if she ever used it as a bed. Anyway, I thought I'd unfold it and clean it out. So I unfold it and start vacuuming up the little dust globs, the standard crumby bits, all that. There's a gob of something dusty and brown and I assume that it's some stray couch stuffing. (FORESHADOWING FORESHADOWING FORESHADOWING) As I'm vacuuming it reappears a couple of times and I impatiently bat it aside until I can get to it. Finally I get to the bottom of the mattress and there it is where I can get a close look. And then I see that it's a dead spider, a little bigger than a ping-pong ball if you count the balled-up and still hairy legs. Probably closer to a golfball really. If I'd had any presence of mind, I would have taken a pic of it and tried to ID it to see if it had come from wherever the couch was manufactured, or if it was something domestic. But I didn't, and instead I squeaked like a little girl and pointed the still-running vacuum at it and thwock it was gone. I.....touched it. Uggggggghghghghghgh. |

Please make the picture in your sig a fuck of a lot smaller.
